Description
American Revolution provides a kaleidoscope of resources and entries on the people, places, and events that coalesced into the American Revolution. This guide offers a concise introduction to one of the most famous revolutions ever fought.
Though the American Revolution is often described within the thematic model of suppression versus freedom, the true significance of the event can be found in its nuances. Explicating complex issues, from slavery and the role of women to matters of diplomacy and strategic warfare, this guide offers comprehensive coverage of the American Revolution without oversimplifying its many facets.
Entries on key documents like the Articles of Confederation and the U.S. Constitution help readers grasp the full scope of the revolution's catalysts as well as its achievements. Primary source documents also provide access to the revolution as experienced in real-time. This book's wide array of resources, combined with Tuckerβs expertise on the American Revolution, makes it an invaluable resource.
